About:

Herricks Middle School celebrated Unity Day on Oct. 23, when students combined their positivity to create a unity tree filled with meaningful messages. Paper leaves prepared by art teachers were counted and distributed by Tova Umlauf’s class, and all students decorated them with themes of hope and anti-bullying. 

Members of the Art Honor Society affixed the leaves to the tree, which is now on display in the hallway outside the cafeteria. Some of the leaves are adorned with famous sayings while others reflect students’ original words of advice. 

“Bullying doesn’t make you cool, kindness does,” “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all,” “Strong people stand up for themselves but the strongest people stand up for others” and “Blowing out someone else’s candle doesn’t make yours shine any brighter” are just some of the phrases that are encouraging all who walk through the middle school.
